Yeah, I did it. I read all 53th pages.. of incredible whining and tears.
First. I think devs will modify and adjust this new alchemy system, so I don't worry about it.
Second. I think devs for a while have capped purity of foragable herbs, animals, etc. Just for testing.
Today I've found 8% purity water, so I think max is ~10% for now.
And I made some 38% cookies using 95% flour and 8% water, so everything is not so bad as seems

He's wrong about the time, but not completely wrong.

I wanted to bounce a couple of things off you Darworth (Insert smooth stone/slingshot joke here :D ),

Apparently they did up the perma-damage on the braziers with the new update, at least according to some people. Have you noticed greater perma-stat hits?

Also here's my new idea, I want to bounce it off the Uber-grinder of the game. What do you think about a hummus wipe as a solution? The dev's could knock all hummus down to 0% or maybe just eliminate all hummus from the game? They could also set all percents in current pots and fields at 0% so everybody who planted trees in 100% hummus in the last 2 days would also lose that. This would have the immediate affect of further hindering huge advantages gained from the old purity system. I don't know if it's possible, but I think it might be another idea for a solution to the problem and start everybody out more evenly within the new updated purity system, without having to knock character stats. I'm interested in your actual thoughts and comments so be nice. :lol:

Old players simply planted seeds, grinded purity, and then 100-400 humours.


Have you completely missed the posts describing WHY these characters are now useless until further alchemy mechanics are added? I can understand why you want to complain about the new system, but at least make your complaints reasonable and logical.

There is freedom of speech and posting pictures of feces! Have you not read the law?!
(Whats the problem anyways? This is something most people have access to gaze upon every other day anyways.)
